Description
9~0~
The present invention relates to a method of producing cellulose pulp, which by dry-disintegration gives so-called fluff, having go~d liquid absorp~io~
and short absorption times.
Absorbent cellulose products are produoe d by dry-defibration of oe llu-lose pulp to form fluff, which is used in e.g. sanitary products, such as diapers and sanitary napkins. For this purpose the oe llulose pulp should have a low mechanical strength, in order to make it possible to separate the fibres from each other without destroying them, and in order to reduce the energy ne oessary for the disintegration. The fluff which is ob-tained a~ter the dry-disintegration should have good liquid absorption capacity and short absorptiontime.
It is knawn to use cationic surfaoe-active agents, such as quaternary ammonium compounds, for reducing the bonds between the oe llulose fibres. mese compounds CRntain one or several long fatty chains, and thus give a considerable impairment of the water absorp~ion time. Further disadvantages of the quatern-ary ammonium compounds a~e that they usually have a chloride ion as anion which gives rise to corrosion damage on equipment, and that they often reduce the brightness of the fluff.
It is also known to add nonionic substan oe s to cellulose pulp in order to reduce the bonding foroes. According to Swedish patent application No.
1491~/68, laid open to public inspection on May 5th, 1970, nonionic subst~noes, which are ethoxylated or propoxylated aliphatic alcohols or alkyl phenols, are used. Swedish patent application No. 7507270-2, laid open on December 25th, 1976, discloses a prncess wherein aIkoxylated aliphatic alcohols are used in combina-tion with quaternary ammanium compounds as retention agents.
According to the present invention, it has been found, that an exoe l lent effect with respect to the properties, which are essential for the produc-tion of fluff, and for the fluff itself, is obtained by using oe rnonionic fatty acid esters in combination with cationic retention agents.

According to the invention, nonionic compounds are used for the pro-duction of absorbent cellulose pulp fluff, which compounds consist of partial fatty acid esters of polyvalent alcohols having 2 to 8 carbon atoms, or anhydrides of these, or polyethylene or polypropylene glycols having molecular weights of up to 500.
Thus the present invention provides: A composition for producing absorbent cellulose pulp fluff, which composition comprises a cationic reten-tion agent and a nonionic compound selected from the group consisting of a partial fatty acid ester of a polyvalen~ alcohol having 2 to 8 carbon atoms or an anhydride thereof, and a partial fatty acid ester of polyethylene or polypropylene glycol having molecular weights of up to 500.
The nonionic compounds themselves have a very low affinity to cell-ulose ibres, but by employing a cationic compound as a retention agent for the nonionic compounds their positive effect on the disintegration energy and on the liquid absorption time can be developed. The combination of the particular nonionic compound and a cationic retention agent provides for the production of 1uff and ~ith an appropriate and essential combination of properties, i.e. good disintegration properties and short water absorption The satisfactory effect is obtained synergistically, when the com-pounds are used in concentrations which individually would not give a corres-ponding efect. Fluff produced according to the invention shows a good brightness and good liquid absorption capacity. The fast liquid absorption remains essentially unchanged on aging.
The nonionic compound, which is used according to the invention, and which is the mai:n 1uf chemical, is a partial fatty acid ester of alcohols, as previously defined, and ls thus a fatty acid ester containing at least one free hydroxyl group.

The fat-ty acid part of the esters consists of a saturated or unsat-urated fatty acid having 8 to 22 carbon atoms, preferably lO to 18 carbon atoms. As examples of suitable fatty acids can be mentioned lauric acid, myristic acid, stearic acid, oleic acid and linoleic acid.

The addition can be made to a suspension of cellulose pulp which is preferred, but it can also be made during the formation of a sheet or web material. The nonionic andclcationic compounds can further be(ladded to the aggregates of fibres, which are obtained in some of those processes, which utilize so-called flashdrying. The cellu-lose pulp which has been treated according to the invention is subsequently dry-disintegrated in a manner known per se.

Claims (5)
PROPERTY OR PRIVILEGE IS CLAIMED ARE DEFINED AS FOLLOWS:
1. A composition for producing absorbent cellulose pulp fluff, which composition comprises a cationic retention agent and a non-ionic compound selected from the group consisting of a partial fatty acid ester of a polyvalent alcohol having 2 to 8 carbon atoms or an anhydride thereof, and a partial fatty acid ester of polyethylene or polypropylene glycol having molecular weights of up to 500.
2. A composition for producing absorbent cellulose pulp fluff according to claim 1, which composition comprises a mixture of a partial fatty acid ester of diethylene glycol and a quaternary monoammonium compound, containing at least one aliphatic hydrocarbon group, having 8 to 0 carbon atoms, wherein the amount of the quarternary ammonium compound is 2 to 30 per cent by weight.
3. A method for producing absorbent cellulose pulp fluff, using a composition which comprises a cationic retention agent and a nonionic compound selected from the group consisting of a partial fatty acid ester of a polyvalent alcohol having 2 to 8 carbon atoms or an anhydride thereof, and a partial fatty acid ester of poly-ethylene or polypropylene glycol having molecular weights of up to 500, in which the nonionic compound is for reducing the bonding forces between cellulose fibres of a cellulose pulp, said composition being added to the cellulose pulp in an amount within the range of 0.05 to 2% by weight, based on dry cellulose, which is then dried.
4. A method according to claim 3, characterized in that the nonionic compound is a fatty acid ester of diethylene glycol.
5. A method according to claim 3 or 4, characterized in that the fatty acid ester is used in combination with a quaternary ammonium compound, containing at least one aliphatic hydrocarbon group, having 8 to 20 carbon atoms.
